Illinois State University (usually abbreviated as 'ISU'), originally named Illinois State Normal University, was founded in 1857 by Jesse W. Fell (1808-1887), and was the first public institution of higher education in the state. Normal schools were schools specifically designated for the education of teachers. In 1964, as the institution began expanding and moving toward a full liberal arts curriculum, its name was changed to Illinois State University at Normal, and by 1968 to Illinois State University.
ISU is located in Normal, Illinois, a town in McLean County in the central part of the state. The town of Normal took its name from the school. Its original name had been North Bloomington. It remains a top teaching school in Illinois. Its athletic teams compete in the Missouri Valley Conference and the Gateway Football Conference, and are known as the "Redbirds" in reference to the state bird, the cardinal.
Illinois State is also home to the world's tallest (but not largest) dormitory, Watterson Towers, which houses 2,200 students. The pair of buildings was completed in 1967.
